Thematic Kath Scarlet (Scum and Villainy)

So...I have this somewhat thematic list I'm working on for the Scum version of Kath Scarlet.

92 points
Kath Scarlet (44) Firespray-31 (38), Push the Limit (3), K4 Security Droid (3)
Binayre Pirate (12) x 4
This is the shell I figured was a good starting point for Kath that was also thematic. The basic concept is getting the triple actions going to focus, evade and TL every turn. I really want to utilize the evade action as much as possible because she'll be a big target.
What are some ideas y'all have to fill in the last 8 points? I was thinking feedback arrays on all of the pirates...or a few Ion Pulse missiles to mess up some primary targets. Is hotshot blaster needed on Kath to cover those arc dodgers? Maybe Engine Upgrade? I guess that could be helpful against lower PS swarms, but not used at all against higher PS aces.
What do you think?
No pressure. No big tournament to attend. Just a casual thematic list that maybe has some potential.

I would go Engine Upgrade on Kath and then give two of your Pirates Feedback Arrays. The Engine isn't totally useless against higher PS ships; they only have a finite number of possible positions, especially if they're trying to avoid the Feedback Arrays, and the Engine Upgrade can be used to adjust your arcs to cover more of them.

same as Draco up there, can't imagine a better use of points than the flexibility of EU and the "holy **** this is AWESOME--is this even the same ship!?!" of feedback array on Z-95s
